The founders of the orchestra were all accomplished musicians in their own right, with years of experience performing with some of the most prestigious orchestras in the world. From the very beginning, the Festival Orchestra was committed to excellence in all aspects of its performances. The musicians were carefully selected for their technical proficiency, musicality, and ability to work collaboratively with others. The orchestra's repertoire was also carefully chosen to showcase the best of classical music, from the great works of the Baroque and Classical periods to the modern masterpieces of the 20th century. Over the years, the Festival Orchestra has performed in some of the most prestigious concert halls and music festivals around the world.

The orchestra has also been nominated for several other Gramophone Awards, as well as the Classical Brit Awards and the International Classical Music Awards. Despite its many achievements, the Festival Orchestra remains committed to its original mission of creating a unique and collaborative musical experience for audiences around the world.
